    Can't activate Bluetooth

    I do not use Debian nor have I used a Debian-Based Distribution in several years now, but a reason why your bluetooth adapter is not being detected could be that Debian might not ship the appropriate firmware for your Bluetooth Adapter. Debian, by default, does not ship non-free firmware. (This...

    Thank you Linux

    how to route the netlify app (or any other, but selectively if possible) through Tor
